Most badass murloc of all times, I meant the art is!
Might be better in wild, with those menagerie cards but Maybe there might be a zoo like deck in standard too because if i saw correct there are some more murlocs that buffs dragons in hand.

jesus christ it looks horrifying
God this makes me wish the Curator was a classic card
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
Looks like a gremlin and this card is also not to shabby, comparable to force of nature except you have the murloc synergy instead of treants.
Menagerie cards aren't available in standard anymore but because this is a very strong battlecry (and there's another Murloc in this set that buffs dragons), it's theoretically possible to make a hybrid zoo deck with dragons, murlocs and maybe some beasts (Scaleworm is still available) as well. Doesn't seem bad to me.
"True mastery takes dedication."
Fun design, but I doubt menagerie will happen anytime soon.
Along with Tasty Flyfish I just don't really see this murloc/dragon menagerie synergy really being a thing.
This whole package could get more support down the line, but for standard play I simply do not see this being a thing.
amazing art. but dragon + murloc archetype is not playable imo. will need many draws to work
I don't think mixing 2 tribals will work, but I like how they try it.
Also +1 for the amazing art. One of the best murlocs I have ever seen.

This isn't good enough for the hoops you have to jump through. Its cool to see the menagerie concepts coming back again and again but I just don't see this one being worth it.
To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of the women.
Seems kinda meh for the archetype, but I do love the art on this one.
badass murloc with atleast 5/5 worth of stats if it can activate his battlecry... dont know if it is worth right now
is blizzard serious? what murloc deck runs dragons lmfao
Alright, Menagerie is commin Boys.
Now is the Question: What's the best Class for it?
I say Hunter. They already have Beast-Synergies, they're about to get some for Dragons and most Murloc-Support is Neutral anyway. Also, Scaleworm.

Finally dragon, beast murloc deck support:D
Time to revisit theorycrafting a wild The Curator deck
Amalgam
I tried having fun once.
It was awful.
Fits in a multi-tribe deck, but otherwise might not be played at all
That's one ugly Murloc. But I don't think this will see play. Murlocs aren't that good overall so you probably won't get insane boards from this. Also the combination of Murlocs and Dragons seems weird, Menagerie decks don't fair well unless it's Battleground xd
weird combo murlock dragon deck
Still think this’ll take more synergy to have a chance, even in wild. Just doesn’t seem worth it over playing one singular tribe
Who needs consistency when you could have fun?
Almost assuredly terrible, but now I’m tempted to make a Wild Curator deck. Don’t know which class yet.
I feel like these menagerie cards are more for Battlegrounds than Constructed
Not this expansion, can't see a murloc deck running dragons, murlocs are aggro, and dragons are control/midrange.. they don't mesh too well at least with the current murloc arsenal, but it makes it more likely to have a bad murloc with angler, or a highroll if you have amalgam as well.
Tryin' to make Murloc Dragon a thing. And it's working. Turn 7 Quest Shaman 5 murlocs.
If the battle cry triggers, you have a lot of stats. On the other hand, you seem to have a dragon-murloc deck, where this is the strongest synergy. GG.
Looks like a Critter haha
First off, I am very glad we finally have a good murloc to pull off of The Curator. I was tired of having to use Nightmare Amalgam as the only murloc in my deck.
This is an interesting design, we don't get a lot of multi-tribe cards, so I am not sure what kind of deck you can use this in. Getting three bodies for just one card is pretty good for some decks, and getting three murlocs means there might be some synergy between the cards. Most of the time this card will probably just flop and get you some really bad stats, but if you are playing a dragon/token deck, this guy fits right in! And who knows, maybe we will see a murloc/dragon deck in the meta ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Carrion, my wayward grub.
I am using paladin for that in wild because of Vilefin Inquisitor's free murlocs + mech support because The Curator and Zoobot are mechs.

a bit costly for 2 murlocs..imagine getting two tiny fins..you would smash your face on the keyboard..
This is probably about vanilla in terms of stats, but produces three bodies (which can matter a lot). I could actually see this being run in Paladin in the same deck that runs Righteous Cause
Maybe not a meme, compared to the other Neutral Epics? Hopefully? Defending a good card for The Curator to pull, alongside a Dragon and Scaleworm.
Thematically, how can you promote Murlocs and Dragons blend?
I love the artwork, really unsure anyone can truly benefit from this dual-tribe building type, but would love to be proven wrong.
Struggle with Heroic Galakrond's Awakening? I got your back :
A good value card, only random summon effect worries me much.
I would not like to craft this card until it seen some play in good meme decks.
murloc dragon seems awful, just nightmare amalgam justify this
The murloc variance is too high to justify this card, too many of them are just too bad.
Sorry maybe I'm in the minority but i don't see menagerie decks being impactful enough to see anything but the most meme of plays. 5 is also a high cost for an RNG murloc (compare to Scargil at 4 mana with an incredibly overpowered effect) and "mid-range murloc" deck just doesn't sound plausible.
Perfect addition into Degenerate Paladin(tip the scales). Just throw in a few Nightmare Amalgams and Dragonqueen Alexstraxa and bam. You either pull this little shit from tip the scales or you can trigger a pretty good battlecry
This ain't no place for a hero
I don't like the card and i don't like the idead to build murloc dragon deck. For me it's just a filler
2 random murlocs strictly isn't good enough I think
I'm hoping this kind of archetype sees more support in the future. I won't work now, but in Wild there is additional menagerie support with cards like Zoobot and The Curator. In Standard this will see no play, 2 stars. Another bad epic for this set though..
Love it! Murloc synergy in dragon decks. These will be my favourites for sure.
Never netdeck, craft Whizbang instead!
Dragon murloc deck? Why not? I can't wait to see if this is going to work!
Not good enough in standard for now, but a fun addition for menagerie decks in wild.
More dragons? Yes please!
Nice card terrifying art it looks to consume my happiness as it floods the board with murlocs of doom. I love how murlocs look and act but I hate fighting them so while this is a wonderfully powerful card I'm going to despise it
Self proclaimed good at battlegrounds
Really cool effect and art, I'm crafting those for sure! Menagerie decks are really fun (especially in Wild), and I'm glad they constantly support the archetype. I wish one day those decks become powerful enough to be competitive.
Obviously something that will be built upon in the following expansions. I hope. Currently, this is weak, but maybe with a couple of Amalgams and something else it could work? Or don't even put this in a Murloc deck and instead put it in a midrange dragon one?
Best mf artwork in the whole expansion. Now THIS is how you make a card look NICE. And honestly, not that bad of an effect. Will see play for sure.
This art LOL
But why they are trying to combine murlocs with dragons? We don't have curator anymore (I dusted mine /crying) and that tribe buffs is just bad. I don't like this card.
I'm sorry for my bad english :)
This card is similar to [Hearthstone Card (Hench-Clan Hog) Not Found], but it cost 1 mana more and needs a dragon in hand. I don't think that this card is strong enough to see a lot of play.
Another disgustingly bad epic that I will open 10 copies of it
Dragons.... Murlocs... HUH?! I see no synergy. Weak card
This is a very weird card. Apparently dragon-murlocs is supposed to be a thing you can do. Seems super strange to me, but that probably means it will be the new meta. Murloc-Dragon-Paladin! Or something ...
Hmm it's interesting. Does Blizzard what to make a deck mith mixed minion type? It might be interesting if they release a new Nightmare Amalgam after the rotation in april. We already got Tasty Flyfish so the 2nd released card with mixed type synergy doesn't look like an accident. So why not?
Not sure why murloc + dragon is a thing, but it definitely looks sick. I'll probably try it out in wild along with all the menagerie cards.
3 murlocs for 5 mana is a good deal. But why would you and dragons to your Murloc deck, except for Nightmare Amalgam?
A truly oddball card. Feels like it wanted to be released in the days of Karazhan when Blizzard flirted with “Menagerie” cards that buffed Murlocs, Beasts and Dragons. Those decks fell apart because it was difficult to make a functional deck that used multiple tribal synergies and the same is probably still true today. Murlocs run the gamut of statlines so even at the highroll outcome, this card is probably too weak to play.
Jaina is best waifu. Always.
very solid card in every murloc oriented deck
Are menagerie coming back? Scale worm, Tasty Flyfish and amalgaman seem to say so, and in my battleground heart I so hope so, but there is still not enough.
Still, I'm going to play with it, who knows, could be this expansion sleeper.
Might be good for a dragon-murloc shaman deck? It is a strange mix but it could actually work out well for aggro.
A dragon murloc deck seems very unlikely to be made, but if it will ever be a thing this card will be in it.
Murlocs and dragons do not belong in the same deck unless you are an amalgam.
It won't see play in any Murloc Deck. Maybe in a Zoolock that runs a few dragons.
i really like the art on this card
ptz
Dragons and murlocs in one deck?! What is this madness? Unplayable card, even in Arena.
Fun and interactive game.
Maybe in a future expansion this will make sense, for now it's just a weird combination that will not see any play.
That is one creepy, Gremlin-looking Murloc on the card art!
Actually a shaman dragon/murloc variant might pop up, you run angler, and slurper anyway in most shaman decks you are already running 4 murlocs, run the dragons and get a decent 5 drop in the deck to buff or generate more murlocs..
Murloc shaman ran some late game anyway sometimes the late game might be the dragons..
